Hi, I have played around with IE9 beta and OpenLayers 2.10 a bit, and did not encounter any major issues. If you set your doctype to <!DOCTYPE html> IE 9 will even use the SVG renderer for vector layers. And your Google issue sounds familiar somehow. It happens when something fails loading the gmaps api (usually when the API key is incorrect). You may want to try to either provide a correct API key, or use Layer.Google.v3. Just include it in your build, and change the script tag that loads the GMaps library.
